Overall a good product
This mower works well and cuts good. I have one issue. The blade spindles in the deck have openings around where they attach to the deck. This allows grass clippings to go thru the openings and collect around the belt and pulleys, especially under the belt gaurds. Dont see a need for this and causes me to have to remove the gaurds and clean out the grass every time I mow. There needs to be a fix developed for this annoying problem.

Great Mower - Bought March 7, 2018. Mower is great and had one issue. Recently mower would not pull itself so took in to Bishops Cub Cadet in Richmond, Ky. They repaired the tension belt in a timely manner. One other issue - left key on once and it ran the battery down plus adding some 30-40 hours to my hour meter. Hour meter needs better design. My opinion.

Good mower, could be better.
Bought this mower about three weeks ago and it's the first zero turn I've owned. This doses a great job and cut my mowing time in half, the only complaint I have is cleaning the top of the deck. Grass clippings come up around the spindles and packing them full making it hard to clean the top of the deck. A better design needs to be found to keep the clippings off the top of the deck. If there's a fix for this problem I would like to know it. The product would get a five star ratting if it didn't have this problem.

I’ll never go back from a zero-turn!!!
My last cub cadet riding mower was a non-zero turn 50” deck and it would take me 4 hours to mow. My new RZT SX54 cut down my time in half!! It rides smooth, never gets stuck, and drives like a pro!

Great mower
Purchased this mower 5 weeks ago and have mowed 5 times. My cut time is now 1.3 hours vs, 2.5 hours. Kawasaki engine is by far the best choice. It is my second machine with this exact motor. No issues cleaning the deck, but you have to cut dry grass not wet. The only complaint is with the Cub Cadet app. It does not funtion as it should. Cannot retrive my password and calls to customer service are usless. The never answer or reply back very frustrating. Overall it runs and cuts very well a very good value for the money.

good mower
This is a good mower, wish the controls were a little closer to the front. Cuts well
and steering is good with a little looseness in the steering wheel. Didn't receive the oil drain hose that was supposed to be on side of engine. Am happy at this point.

Dissatisfaction
This is my second machine. Had the first one three years, traded it in for the exact same machine, however this one isn't as high quality as the first one. First off it is VERY HARD TO STEER. I greased it thinking maybe they forgot, but no help. It almost feels like it locks up sometimes. Takes both arms to move it.
